Iran's capital has reportedly been rocked by another huge explosion as the US continues to threaten military action in the country. An as yet unconfirmed report comes after an Iranian official warned in January that any attack on the Islamic Republic would be considered "an all out war" against the country. Footage posted on social media purports to show an explosion in Tehran earlier on Wednesday (February 4). The unverified clip comes after a fire tore through a commercial market in the capital yesterday. Tensions between the United State and Iran remain high after the Iranian regime launched a brutal crackdown on civilians protesting against the cost-of-living in the heavily sanctioned Middle East state. Reports of an explosion in Tehran came on the day Iranian media said talks between Iran and the US will be held Friday in Oman.
